    Someone has probably linked to this already. From a swedish humour-program called Grotesco. Not translating everything but the title is "Mix it up" and they sing "take a black man between your thighs".

    Remember seeing this for the first time and thought I was dreaming. And oh, broadcasted on a public service-channel!

    It is a tax you pay for when you own a television in the UK which goes towards funding public television, radio, film, websites, streaming, ect. The main bulk of it goes towards the BBC.

    Love it! :smt038

    "Daddy" is a cutie, too...love his dimples! :smt049

    Good for you, Thump! The comments aren't worth reading, and the haters and their negativity aren't worth wasting time or focus on. We should embrace the positive and refuse to let the negativity take away from it. :smt023

    Didn't see it that way at all.

    Just a guy coming onto a girl, with race being no factor at all. Just how it's supposed to be.

    Agreed.

    Beautiful commercial and SO happy to see general mills/cheerios airing this during something as huge as the superbowl. :heart:

    That's too bad in this case, because 99.999% are simply awesome! I have yet to read a racist/bigoted one so far (I stopped at 200). In fact, I have never read so many beautiful, heartwarming, supportive, congratulatory, approving messages on a Tubetube page - ever! :smt057 This is why it's still up - Cheerios must be super excited to see such an overwhelming positive response to their new Ad! Reading them made me smile so hard and makes me believe we are winning...the haters have all but disappeared back under their rocks.

    I'm glad to hear that. It's nice to know that positivity can still win on the internet sometimes.
